Re-Entry Program For Kentucky Prisoners Highlighted In Frankfort

More than 400 Kentucky inmates are participating in a re-entry program focusing on services both during and after incarceration. Gov. Matt Bevin was among those recognizing the Safe Streets and Second Chances project. Carrie Pettus-Davis, of Florida State University, said re-entry program specialists work with inmates.“They use assessment tools. They do individual counseling sessions. They do group counseling sessions. They act almost like community navigators for these individuals and they do it prior to release and then after the individuals get home."
